Proprieter was very nice. I forgot to get food before I arrived and all the restuarants were closed, so he drove me all the way to the store. Communal bath was nice and walm. Room was large and comfortable.

Staff was very friendly and happy to help, room was spacious and slept well. very peaceful

Great food, fantastic people and amazing onsen.

The breakfast and dinner were very good.

The first thing that came to my mind was the food. Both dinner and breakfast were undeniably yummy for our liking. The place was well maintained, immaculately clean. Bedroom was spacious for the three of us. Futons were great. Staff members were helpful and able to speak English.

A beautiful, tasteful and stylish house, including a cafe. Generous and kind owner who, supported by his mother, prepared great local cuisine and helped us discover the Oga peninsula.

Meals were easily the most intricate and most sophisticated of all the Ryokans I've tried. They go out of their way to showcase Akita specialties, which I really appreciate as it means I need not travel to restaurants specially to try them. They provide a private dining room and I cheekily thought to myself that this is so you can lick your plate clean! Indeed it was so delicious that if the Michelin inspectors came, I am sure they will get a star. Best service out of all the ryokans I went to - everyone is super attentive and super responsive. On the booking.com app, they were the most prompt to respond to messages. They had good recommendations for me on what I could do around Lake Tazawako and the surrounding area. Other examples of exemplary service: They took the initiative to ask me if I would like a picture with my meal (as I was a solo traveller). How delightful! Out of all the ryokans I stayed in, this is the only one who did that. Another example: they asked me if they could clean my room while I am out. This is unlike other hotels and ryokans that instead ask if I would like my room cleaned (assuming that the default is no). The room was of a most excellent layout with good separation of different areas and a good size such that it makes you feel like you are living in your own apartment and not so much a resort. The bed was also very comfortable - there is something special about the bed linens. They were so refreshing to the touch and so comfortable. At every corner there are thoughtful gestures - a little bench for you to admire a view, the tatami flooring throughout. Every effort has been made to make it a special and premium experience. Even the toilet is larger than some of what I’ve seen and has charming and tasteful decorations. I am so glad I tried out Kashintei Shirahama and hope to be back!

The price was cheap and that breakfast and dinner was provided was also good value. UJnfortunately us trying to save some dollars was our downfall.

Well located and clean. Excellent onsen
